Product Description
For your consideration is an Antique Cambodian Khmer T-99 Silver Elephant Garnet Eyes Betel Trinket Box in very good to excellent pre-owned condition. This betel/trinket box made in Cambodia is beautifully handcrafted in nearly pure silver (about 97%) with a repousse and hand chased design. The betel box was a quintessential part of everyday life during the British colonization of Cambodia in which the areca nut was spiced and held within a betel leaf and then chewed as a mild stimulant. Additionally, the betel box was used as a status symbol and fashion accessory. This piece of history flaunts exquisite floral motifs and polished surfaces with set garnet eyes and shows no monograms or major cosmetic issues. Please note this is a handmade item and irregularities in the design should not be confused for damage.
This betel box was examined by a GIA graduate gemologist to verify the authenticity of the stones and/or metal purity. All of our pre-owned items are guaranteed authentic. If an item comes with box and papers it will be pictured and described. If there is no mention of box and papers, the item will not come with it. Please view our photos for additional information.
